Dan, let alex know, I am still trying to get all the Serpent footage from the worlds, but there's so much footage, my PC crashes or hangs for a while and Ive wasted countless hours away from renovations and other things. Its my new year resolution to get it done by the end of January and will send off the vision as promised.
Hey Blis
Thääänk you!
A happy new year to all of you!
Is it right? Have you changed to the Serpent Team? :-)

The kit screws are just a little too wide in the head, they just peek out the side when the shoes aren't flared. I'm worried they'll rub on the face of the 2 speed clutch drum.
I thought you were talking about the set screws top and bottom that adjust the gap between the shoes and the bell housing. Now I understand you are talking about the 2 spring screws. Personally I didn't have an issue when setup correctly the screw heads are down far enough that they shouldn't protrude past the shoes.

No no no... Would be nice, but the C02 kit we have is plenty good for us... Those enjoying Serpent who were at the worlds had plenty to enjoy too, everyone's cars looked good out there!

Of course, the LAB C02/3 is a very good car.
After finishing the build of the natrix I will start with the C03 :-)

Also I would like to know what steering and throttle and diffs oils and lipo pack. You guys suggest along with wheels. Or anything you may know I need before I start my build. I have a Futaba radio.

earlier in this thread people used sanwa ers-971 servo`s, 3 -to 500.000 front and 4 -to 80.000 rear (old diffs), for the newer diffs double the numbers, all depending on track offcourse. A Life pack is easier, so a zippy 700 or zippy 1100 battery.
